I'm waiting for our IT guy to download the Developer edition from our MSDN/Technet subscription. I can wait a little bit to get an edition that won't expire to play with. Besides, trying to get some other things done and don't have the time to play with 2012 at the moment. :(

However, I may want to try the new SSIS bits to move some data around and see what's different. I'm really looking forward to those changes.
